Jupiter, West Palm Beach

The worst is past us now, but we were stuck in the NE quadrant of the storm, which is the worst. Tornados and lots of rain, and strong wind gusts. This was tame compared to others I’ve been in.

I like this

it’s efficient baseball. You score one more run than the other guy, and you save the rest of the runs for another day. Find the right place, and you can get 5% interest on those saved runs, too.
